Although Barton was mentally prepared, when he actually saw it, he still couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat.
“Are those humans locusts? How could they move so many and so fast?”
No one knows better than him, the Lord of Bristone, that Bristone How many supplies are stored inside?
This is the base camp left by Kerrigan. Almost all demon cities have to pay tribute to Bristone.
And in a hurry, he was able to bring as many demon troops into Bristone as possible, which was already very rare. He had no time and effort to take care of those supplies.
Who would have thought that all the supplies he didn't care about could disappear overnight.
Those are millions of demons, and it would take several days to transport the supplies.
But he no longer has time to worry about supplies. He needs to make sure first whether those damn humans have left.
It’s not enough to be outside the city. Today, Bristone not only has no outer city wall, but even a large part of the moat has been filled in.
In fact, not only the city wall, but also the buildings close to the city wall have been bulldozed.
It's not that Xu Laixian's balls hurt, it was purely caused by accidental injuries while using magic ammunition to kill the demon.
These bulldozed houses and buildings were not wasted, they were all pushed into the moat.
The magma in the magma river is not produced by itself, and will gradually cool down if no one maintains it.
The things Xu Lai pushed in only accelerated the process and created some difficulties for the devil to restore the moat.
All the supplies in the city, as well as the craftsmen in the dungeon, and even their families have all disappeared.
The demons who investigated found no signs of human activity nearby.
Mendis does not want to be trapped in the city anymore, and it will be difficult to escape by then.
And he also knew that in a few days at most, Kerrigan would probably lead a team back for rescue.
At that time, he had no chance to leave.
The Gate of the Abyss was destroyed, and he had been defeated by Xu Lai many times before. He felt that he had no face, and he was also afraid of Kerrigan's punishment.
Therefore, Mendis said goodbye to Barton directly and expressed his intention to leave Bristone.
Barton originally wanted to keep Mendis so that he could help share some of the responsibilities when the time came.
But then I thought about it, Mendis left, and that was when he poured dirty water on him.
And regarding Tren, although Kerrigan did not have an attack before, it does not mean that he will not have an attack after seeing the Gate of the Abyss destroyed.
Barton specially prepared many witnesses for himself, but unfortunately those big demons had basically died in the battle.
If Mendis were to fiddle with it a little more, the consequences would be extraordinary.
At this moment, Barton stopped blocking him and allowed Mendis to leave with his abyss lords and abyss demons.
Speaking of which, although Mendis was always the loser in several battles, the losses were not heavy.
The biggest loss was just the loss of a lot of abyss demons, and the abyss lords only lost two to three thousand at most.
The size of the troops may have been reduced by more than half, but the real combat effectiveness has been lost by more than one-third at most.
There is no way, people rely on summoned objects to fight, and their sense of smell on the battlefield is very keen, so they can always avoid most risks.
Mendis actually didn’t know where to go, but no matter where he went, he didn’t want to stay in this place anymore. He already had a shadow here.
That human hero is too powerful. Under his influence, every level of human warrior must be upgraded by at least 2-3 levels.
The best way is to find a way to assassinate the commander of the human army first.
In that case, hundreds of thousands of infantry and cavalry would not be enough to fight his abyss lords.
However, not far after flying out, a shower of arrows suddenly shot from the ground.
The phantom shooters had already evacuated during the day yesterday. At night, the infantry and shooters of the Qingfeng Legion also loaded up their supplies and left under the cover of night.
Only the cavalry troops, Xu Lai left behind Yan Feng's cavalry and archery regiment and Roland's Holy Light Knights.
Coupled with Elvi's Angel Legion, the total number left behind is not large, but its combat effectiveness and movement speed are extremely strong.
Xu Lai is not willing to let these demons run away, plus he has attack acceleration and the talent of speed.
Not to mention meeting Kerrigan, with his current level and equipment, he is still capable of fighting.
Even if you are outnumbered and don't want to fight, you can at least run away.
Besides, guarding the Gray Valley, the only passage guarding most of the Western Empire, is still in the hands of Xu Lai, and is guarded by generals.
If Kerrigan wants to eat him, he must either send the air force to surround him, or send troops to intercept his retreat.
But if we send troops to intercept his retreat, the troops sent out will have to withstand attacks from both sides by Xu Lai and Reina.
Unless Kerrigan personally takes action, it is impossible to intercept Xu Lai.
But if Kerrigan goes to cut off the retreat in person, who will stop Xu Lai in front.
Xu Lai has a warehouse ring with him. Not to mention the supplies for more than 10,000 people, tens of thousands more can support it.
He could choose to stay in the rear and fight Cregan's guerrillas, and while Cregan was attacking Graycastle, he could sneak attack the rear or the food road.
If Kerrigan comes to chase him, he can also choose to evacuate.
Huigu can only block these demons, but not him.
Not to mention that he has the Book of Magicians, masters all level 5 spells, and can release flying magic to fly away.
Even if he doesn't fly, he can go all the way south to the Krubi River, Amber Lake and other waters.
These two waters are connected to Hanjiang River.
Two or three months have passed, and he no longer knows the combat effectiveness of Xu Lai's coast guard force.
But getting more than 10,000 of them home should not be a big problem.
At least during this period, Xu Lai only heard the report that they had been able to completely control Hanjiang, and did not hear the rest of the bad news at all.
With no worries about his future, Xu Lai stayed in person, firstly to cut off the situation, and secondly to see if he could get any benefits.
Because he was busy working too late yesterday, he got up a little later outside the city today.
As a result, he was only halfway through breakfast when he saw a large pile of abyss demons and abyss lords flying slowly from Bristone.
This group of huge demons relied on two huge bat wings to flap vigorously in order to drag their huge bodies.
With their huge size, they can fly more than a hundred meters high, and their speed cannot be considered slow. Most of the time, it is enough.
Even if they are within the shooting range of the shooter, according to their flying speed, they can fly directly over shield walls and city walls.
The two-handed sword of the archer is incomparable to the two-handed sword of the abyss demon and abyss lord.
The two-handed swords of the abyss lords, when swung out with one sword, have a group attack effect and can wipe out a large group of shooters.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, abyss demons and abyss lords are not afraid of shooters.
But there is a kind of shooter that is better than them.
It should be said that this kind of shooter can restrain most types of soldiers. Archers once swept across the Eurasian continent on Earth.
In this magical world, it cannot be said that they are invincible. At least opponents who move slower than them will have a huge headache.
And under the banner of Xu Lai's speed talent and chivalry.
Even without equipment such as knight gloves, there are few units that can surpass these knights who are only at level 7 in speed.
It is a pity that what Xu Lai mastered is not god-level archery. Otherwise, with the bonus of god-level archery, he might be able to kill all these abyss lords.
The Abyss Demons are the priority to be consumed. After the first two battles, there is not much left, which is about half the number of the existing Abyss Lords.
Faced with the horse archers who couldn't get rid of them and could continuously replenish their ammunition after emptying it, Mendis was also panicked.
He originally wanted to turn around and hide from Bristone again.
Unexpectedly, Barton discovered his intention, and his red face turned from red to blue, and then from green to purple.
When there was no way to determine whether Bristone was safe just now, this guy couldn't wait to run away, for fear of being destroyed along with Bristone.
At this moment, he was clearly in danger, but he was trying to use Bristone's power to escape.
Knowing that Bristone was related to his wealth and life, he still used Bristone as a tool for use.
"Attention all units, aim at Mendis and shoot for me!"
Barton roared angrily, condensed a huge flaming fireball, and smashed it towards Mendis.
Mendis was startled. He was not too afraid of the fireball, but Bristone set up countless ballistas last night.
At this time, let alone ten thousand arrows, there are always eighteen hundred arrows.
The key is the power of the crossbow, especially the high-end crossbow. After the ballistics and archery are added, it is very terrifying.
With thousands of rounds of ballista ammunition and countless fireballs, Mendis stopped a ballista in the air in time.
But even so, there were several abyss lords around him who were shot to death trying to block Mendis's knife.
These are the personal guards he trained, and each one is well equipped.
The rest of the abyss lords also suffered heavy losses. This single salvo alone killed at least nearly a hundred of his abyss lords.
It can be said that the damage caused by this wave of salvos was basically equivalent to the group of horse archers chasing him for three or four minutes.
There is no way, the horse archers use short bows, which are inherently less powerful than the infantry bows of the same level.
Even after all the wars, most of Yan Feng's men have advanced to level 7 heroes, and at last they were level 6 rangers.
But the power can be reduced by one level. Although the abyss lords and the others fly at a height of only more than a hundred meters, they are flying in the sky.
Unless it is a sky shooter, phantom shooter, or titan, all shooters will automatically have their range reduced by one-third when shooting air targets.
Yan Feng and the others can't shoot directly under others, otherwise they won't have enough distance to escape if they kill them.
In this case, many archers shoot beyond the half-arrow range and can only cause half damage.
Even though Xu Lai has ultimate archery skills, a statue of the God of War, and a rainbow of morale, he does not have any archer-type treasures after all.
On the other hand, Mendis not only has the ultimate defense to protect his body, but also has the special blessings of the Abyss Lord and the Abyss Demon.
Had it not been for the low morale and 10% defense deduction, the damage done by the horse archers would have been much lower.
If there was no way to get through Bristone, Mendis repeated his old trick and divided the team into two parts.
A group of people, led by close followers, led all the abyss demons and flew in the opposite direction of Lionheart City, the human capital.
Lionheart City has long been an isolated city, and that place may have been blocked by Kerrigan's spell. Only when the city was broken, a message came from the temple.
After that, there was no news from the entire Lion Heart City.
Therefore, Xu Lai only knew that Lionheart City had been destroyed and that Kerrigan had a large force stationed there.
Only the demons know very well that Lion Heart City has not only been destroyed, but the entire city has fallen into the hands of demons.
I don’t know the specific situation, but Xu Lai won’t go in that direction anyway.
The result was that Mendis's troop division strategy was completely ineffective, not to mention that it had no effect at all, and all the firepower was concentrated on his own abyss lord.
Mendis' spell couldn't be thrown at Xu Lai and the others, so he simply released an attack acceleration on his own troops.
However, seeing this scene, Xu Lai quickly stepped forward, rushed into the coverage of the spell, and cast a slow spell on the opponent.
Mendis was so angry that he vomited blood, but the effect of the slowing method completely covered the attack acceleration.
He no longer has the scroll to dispel the magic, so he can only wait until the next time he casts the spell to find a way.
Xu Lai took advantage of the opponent's slowdown and calmly replenished his ammunition.
The quivers on the heroes had been empty before. What Xu Lai replenished for them this time were Behemoth armor-piercing arrows with a stronger defense-ignoring effect.
The price of armor-piercing arrows is much higher than ordinary arrows, but these heroes bring their own armor-piercing arrows, and Xu Lai has used Yan Feng's arrows before.
However, the Behemoth armor-piercing arrow was made by Xu Lai after he slaughtered thousands of Behemoths in the stronghold.
He sold a lot of Beamon's sharp claws, and kept the rest to make armor-piercing arrows, each of which could ignore at least 50% of the defense.
If the quality is good, it can ignore about 60%-75%. Only a few armor-piercing arrows made with Ghost Behemoth can ignore 100% of the defense.
Sure enough, after replacing these armor-piercing arrows, the casualties of Mendis and his abyss lords increased instantly.
Grinning his teeth, Mendis decided to divide his troops again, but he had just cast a spell, so he deliberately disrupted the order of the troops before dividing his troops.
Hiding in the large army, Mendis quietly changed himself into a set of ordinary equipment.
He also asked his own guards with conspicuous equipment to lead a group of more numerous abyss lords, about 5,000 people, to fly towards the north.
And he mixed in with the remaining 2,000 abyss lords and flew towards the northeast.
Xu Lai couldn't identify where Mendis was for a moment.
So he also divided his troops, and he and Yan Feng's troops divided into two groups.
Yan Feng has enough acceleration scrolls, and Xu Lai also specifically asked not to get close, and he still has enough ammunition reserves.
Even if it's not as good as Behemoth's Armor-piercing Arrow, it shouldn't be a big problem to kill more than half of the five thousand abyss lords.
And he himself, with Seraph Elvi, continued to chase the small group of abyss lords.
Because Elvi and the others had not shown up before and had only been flying above the heads of the abyss lords for reconnaissance, they were ignored by Mendis.
As a result, not long after Mendis divided his troops, Elvi, who received Xu Lai's order, galloped down with the Angel Legion, which had been expanded to 400 people.
Xu Lai also lit up the light of prayer at the right time, adding an ultimate BUFF to the angels.
With the blessing of prayer light, the God of War Statue, the Angel Alliance and other treasures, even a seventh-level little angel can challenge two or three abyss lords at one time.
Although Mendis, who had changed his equipment, was not discovered immediately.
But his combat effectiveness is even worse than that of ordinary abyss lords.
Until this small group of abyss lords were all annihilated, Xu Lai only knew that the angels killed Mendis, but did not know which angel Mendis died in. (End of this chapter)
